While descriptions of the religions are brief, they give a basic overview of the religions. Ideas of things to do to learn more are included. Photographs show people in worship for each religion.

This is a great multicultural informative book about the differnt major religions. The book discusses the same topics for each religion - places of worship, prayer, symbols, texts, and rituals. It aims at promoting acceptance by pointing out some similarities. This is a book I would share with students just to teach them about culture and diversity. It would also be useful in learning about different areas around the world and where these religions are found mostly.

A simple, elementary introduction to Buddhiusm, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism exploring such elements as scared texts, symbols, places of worship, prayer, and rituals. An appealing and informative presentation.

A heartwarming collection of quotations from kids and celebrities on milestones in their lives.
